How to Make Surround Headphones • Multiplayer Advantage

[@andrepienaar]

Nice to have you back and super cool content!

[@YeshuahisKingofKings]

Wow haha that smile of satisfaction when you finally put on the headphones, deserved. They look professional with the foam earpad. Can't wait to see how it works with cable soup haha

So happy to see you and glad you are still smiling!

[@DMonZ1988]

heck yeah, nice job! i've been thinking about how to do something like this for a few years, since i first tried VR. although my thought was to design more of a 'halo'/headband speaker array so you have speakers centre/front/rear/L/R around your head. i'd still really like to try it. the info next week about wiring and making a 7.1 amp will be really really useful! thank you Rudolf!!

[@integralogic]

6 speakers left rightt top bottom front back

[@theanomynousguy]

+ Subwoofer@@integralogic

[@TheJohn8765]

I look forward to seeing how you wire up the DAC.

[@IIGrayfoxII]

Not that hard. You have 4 normal speakers on each side+1 sub per side. Front, Side, Rear, Center Each one needs a power and ground PC2001 design spec tells you what color each output on the internal audio card does. Front as Green Side as Gray Rear as Black Center as Orange Tip(Center is a mono channel decided for vocals) Sub as Orange Ring Ground is Sleeve on all TRS connections. LF+ Green Tip LF- Green Sleeve LS+ Gray Tip LS- Gray Sleeve LR+ Black Tip LR- Black Sleeve LC+ Orange Tip LC- Orange Sleeve Left Sub+ Orange Ring Left Sub - Orange Sleeve RF+ Green Ring RF- Green Sleeve RS+ Gray Ring RS- Gray Sleeve RR+ Black Ring RR- Black Sleeve RC+ Orange Tip RC- Orange Sleeve Right Sub+ Orange Ring Right Sub - Orange Sleeve Only issue is you will need a USB type AMP to power the Sub. The Roccat Kave was a 5.1 type headphone that used USB power to power the amp and do no audio processing.

[@James-wd9ib]

This guy's spot welder housing is combustible

[@IIGrayfoxII]

Wonder how they really sound. Companies that made proper 5.1 headsets spent time to make sure they sounded right, not only positioning but angle of drivers. I loved my Roccat Kaves. I had the "Virtual Surround" headphones. If I am looking for 5.1, I expect to get multiple drivers.

[@magopoligonal7349]

When you are a noob playing but have brains, time and money

[@NathanaelPotoski]

Dude. That was an awesome build. I've taken some inspiration from it. Thank you for making this.

[@satibel]

I wonder how's the sound with no room behind the speakers. also I'd suggest using rca connectors instead of glued in cables, because cables breaking are often the death of headphones another option would be to terminate to a mini din or db9/db15 depending if having a common ground is a problem or not. if you wand to keep crosstalk absolutely away, I'd suggest making cable combs so they stay tidy and away from eachother.

[@om3726]

These are the world's most rigid(tough) headphones ever🔥💪 The cables look crazy😂😜

[@RetroPlus]

That's insane, what a crazy and interesting idea. I'm glad there are people like you willing to do this kind of thing

[@fatihduran2110]

Have you thought about braiding the cables? There are five strand hair braiding techniques that should work with the cables too.

[@tell-it-like-it-is8305]

Probably the best diy project I've ever seen 🤘🤘🤘

[@twelvelookslike]

Love this project! Its too bad sound quality is hard to translate over the internet

[@lesavdesabonnes]

Amazing, i dream to build a surround headphone for years! I was looking for diy headphone tips because i just buy an old radio headphone from 50', and i was searching these couple of words, great to see someone doing this!!! Edit: yeah the problem after that is the connections, especially when you want to use it as a nomade and with smartphone and/or music player. I don't know if there something doing 5.1 and what is the extention of the music files, if it must be converted, if there's some players doing this automatically...

[@Dontmakemereregister]

I'm always amazed at your talent

[@Justifier]

Hi Its been a bit down the road, how are these holding up? Do they still wow you? Do you still use/like them?

[@djjantzen55]

Wow I really like youre Awsome videos!!! I really like your aditude. You are not afraid to try to make something on your own. It is not the best way to do it. But you learn from just doing it. And you get positive results. Love what you are doing here. Keep up the good work!!! XD

[@loulavillena9896]

god damn that's the best idea i ever seen real surround sound

[@pianomusicmusicpiano332]

michia, da tanto non guardo i tuoi video, tra qualche anno diveti doc di ritorno al futuro :)) bel laboratorio

[@IanLandesman]

Nice video Rulof. Wouldn't be surprised if a big company steals your idea. Kinda shocked they don't already make these. Wouldn't buy one myself but I bet a lot of people would.

[@stelthtenau]

Because they dont work. The speakers are much to close to give surround sound.

[@IanLandesman]

@@stelthtenau big companies make useless devices all the time. Suckers would buy this in droves. Plus it looks cool.

[@mitri5389]

@@IanLandesman they been making them for at least a decade. there is nothing to steal and they dont work better than a single driver headphone

[@IanLandesman]

@@mitri5389 never seen one with multi-speakers before. Got a link? I'd love to see! Thanks

[@jjhack3r]

You have 2 ears... good stereo headphones can produce "3D" sound. I've tried surround sound headphones and its never been any better. The sound going to the headphones is more important than having many speakers per ear. Use some stereo headphones and listen to 8D audio on youtube... it's surround sound with 2 speakers.

[@rabeesyed6629]

Hi Rulof, Can you please show us how to make a high ampere transformer or a power supply for the HHO project.

[@robbycarell8607]

Great project!!!!! Love it Rulof

hey rulof. you are a talented dude. what devise are you using to form/cut the wood housing's ? new sub here;)

[@KaiHunter]

damn, I had an idea to make a multi speaker headphone system but you beat me too it :') great video!

[@Daglu_96]

Perché non le hai stampate in 3D?

[@Thomasnor1]

first of all, the reason you have multiple speakers in a surround sound system is because we are really good at perceiving where sound is coming from, and multiple sound sources makes it easier to simulate sound coming from somewhere else than right infront of you. with headphones this is not an issue, since the sound is being pumped directly into your ears. this means the echoing and minor delay that your brain uses to calculate spatial positioning of the speakers is completely gone. having multiple drivers in a pair of headphones is almost completely meaningless. the only reason to have multiple drivers in a pair of headphones is to either boost certain frequency bands or to balance the frequency response in specific ways, which is often used in high-end in-ear monitors. the headphones look good and it looked like a fun project, but they wont give you any advantage ingame. having a good quality driver in each cup will give you a lot better quality audio and probably better spatial perception. a classic modding project is taking the cheap ass koss headphones and making cups for them. the drivers on the koss headphones are insanely good for their price

[@mikeworkman3593]

Everything you just wasted your time on saying is total bullshit. I've had headphones like the ones he just made, and you can clearly tell that there is separation from front to back.

[@jloren4647]

Oh, and hey! Get some CNC proof-medium-clay its a cheap, usually pink clay/foam. I am sure routech (an italian CNC company I worked with can source it or give you scrap for a shout out. But this will be best while you are getting to know your machine. That way you don't have to run tests with endless material types and can rule out what problems may be material problems vs the ones with machining. But what do I know? Im just a fan. Who worked machines from routech sourced from italy.

[@mohsen7277]

i got most positive vibes from you and your work. move on

[@b0bl00i]

Fantastic project! Glad to see you progressing so much during the years! How's the sound? Thanks for a great video.

[@Nobe_Oddy]

That was SOOO CREATIVE!!! GREAT JOB!!! I was thinking that it might not give you such a great surround experience compared to the speakers placed all around the room. Only because they are so close to your ears and the sound doesn't have a chance to bounce around all the folds in your ear that we have that makers us be able to tell which direction sound comes from. I REALLY hope you tell us how it all turns out and how good it reproduces the true surround experience while next to your ears. I CAN'T WAIT!!! :D

[@eliasjarjoura445]

These headphones need a neck support, maybe for the shoulders also!

[@Nono-hk3is]

Absurd, but also awesome.

[@grayeaglej]

Should braid all those cables into one more manageable rainbow bundle. O.o

[@heinojaegertube]

Amazing Project.

[@RekonzShadow]

What a wicked project

[@iynch1938]

Can you make it open back maybe it will be better

[@MikhaelHausgeist]

Dude... All along this video I beating myself with facepalms because of ineffective use of tools and some other things... But do You know what? YOU ARE AWESOME!!! Because even in such way You still build some haedphones! P.S.: I don't know if You figure out, but lack of air behind driver/speaker it can make it clippin because there be not enaugh air for diafragm to move and pressure in socket with driver affect to sound quality... But think holes from cables are enough... At least hope so.

[@mrwhiskers8951]

very nice Rulof!

[@graysonk6695]

[@jloren4647]

Do a collab vid w Adam from myth busters where there is a play on words of "eurotrash" You both do a build you agree upon but one of you substitutes and sources the materials from what is available as local trash/low cost as different countries have different treasures/trash: An american Italian who is tired of hearing I'm not because I don't look like mario.

I admire your work but you should learn more about electronics. Ad a passive filter in your next project, reduce to single cable. use an USB 5.1 DAC circuit inside headphone too.

Smart 👍 . I like it.

If this headphone is open back the sound will feel better than have bigger bass soundstage
